Day 3 of our trip took us into the Derrynasaggart Mountains and out onto the Dingle Peninsula where Ryans Daughter was filmed and on into Tralee.

Day 4 we explored the Ring of Kerry and then over to the Lakes of Killarney. In Killarney we went on on a jaunting car ride. Sadly much of the early part of the day going around the Ring of Kerry and to Killarney was foggy.

Next day we left Tralee and headed to Galway. On the way stopping at the pretty town of Adare. Where one street of shops is made up entirely of thatched cottages.

After leaving Adare we headed on to Limerick. Where we visited St. Mary's Cathedral and King John's Castle, and stopped to see the Treaty Stone. It was in 1691 that the Limerick Treaty is said to have been signed when Limerick finally fell into English hands.
